Chapter 1249
Big Building, Western Frontier.
Great Desert.
Originally, the boundless Great Desert has now become countless funnel-shaped Desert Farms.
He Yan accompanied Xu Xingchun on the super high-speed rail, and in just two hours they traveled from Jingcheng to Blazing Beacon.
After stepping out of the super high-speed rail station, they met the people who had come to greet them.
Picking people up, this practice, is no longer common in the Big Building.
In the fully intelligent era, it's too convenient, so convenient that you don't need to bring anything and can tour the entire Big Building.
It's all machines picking people up.
The surrounding passengers all gave a salute, wanting to see whose family He Yan and Xu Xingchun were from, as it was actually necessary for someone to come pick them up.
Yang Qianchong raised his hand to greet He Yan.
"Xu Xingchun, He Yan."
The two ran over, followed by a line of Li.
"Qianchong, you came to pick us up."
Yang Qianchong opened his arms, preparing to welcome an embrace.
He Yan instantly saw what he intended and preemptively grabbed him in a hug.
"Yang Qianchong, the Yang Family has rules; don't get involved with Xingchun."
He whispered softly.
Yang Qianchong shoved him away, utterly disdainful.
"Move aside, you big man, what are you hugging for?"
Then he opened his arms again.
Xu Xingchun laughed and punched him.
"You filthy rascal, be careful I tell Yang Lao."
Yang Qianchong looked dejected.
"Ah, the Yang Family has misunderstood me."
He Yan pushed him along.
"What misunderstanding? Let's go, let's first have fun in Blazing Beacon, then continue westward."
This time we want to tour the whole world.
Yang Qianchong simply shook his head.
"I don't like riding in a stuffy container; next we could transfer to high-speed rail, or we could go by RV."
Yang Qianchong's disdain is indeed He Yan's pleasure.
"What stuffy container? The super maglev train, although operated in a vacuum tube, makes extensive use of virtual reality technology inside; along the way, the car windows show the real scenery of the places along the route, the most beautiful views."
"It's not at all inferior to reality."
Yang Qianchong himself insisted.
"High-speed rail is still better."
He Yan also didn't want to give up fast transportation.
"The super maglev train is good."
As they spoke, the two started arguing.
Three fifteen-year-olds, always full of energy and childlike fun.
The surrounding passengers not only didn't feel annoyed by the noise, but actually found it quite interesting.
Xu Xingchun felt embarrassed.
"Alright, you two stop arguing, or else let's take a boat."
"How nice that the Field-and-path Canal has opened; from Blazing Beacon to Kesh, one can enjoy the canal lights all the way."
Yang Qianchong immediately agreed.
"Good, this plan is good."
The Field-and-path Canal is actually the Western Water Diversion Project.
The current Great Desert's population has exceeded one hundred million.
Along the canal, everywhere has become an industrial hub.
Originally, the manufacturing here faced Central Asia, but now the business scope has reached the other side of the ocean.
Moreover, the world's longest high-speed maglev train, with a speed of up to 2000 km/h, also passes through here.
All this has promoted the prosperity of the Great Desert.
Moreover, the Yang Family's judgment was also correct; with natural development, precipitation in the Great Desert region has become abundant.
Many places have already turned into grasslands.
However, these grasslands are dangerous, with many quicksand and marsh traps.
Many animals have been swallowed by these dangers, of course including clueless people.
"I'll first take everyone to have fun in Blazing Beacon, then I'll take you to the Desert Farm to check out the water collectors, the underground reservoirs, the underground water network, and the extraterrestrial experimental chamber."
"Inside the lab, you can also directly video chat with Aunt Glutinous Rice."
"I heard she's built a big Shopping Mall on Yueqiu, which is awesome."
He Yan felt this arrangement was great.
Ordinary people coming here could never see these things; only the Yang Family can.
The three traveled together, discussing their elders along the way.
He Yan's grandfather is He Jiale, and his great-grandfather is He Yuzhu.
Xu Xingchun's great-grandfather is Xu Damao.
He Yuzhu and Xu Damao have long since switched to another way of playing.
Their descendants have not severed their connection.
Otherwise, Yang QianSong would not have come in person to greet.
Now He Yan and Xu Xingchun are together; although they are only fifteen or sixteen, it's quite fun.
Yang QianSong probably also knows the relationship between the He and Xu families' great-grandfather generation.
That's why he enjoys teasing them without getting tired.
After playing for a few days, Yang QianSong boarded the excursion boat and finally had the energy to gossip again.
"He Yan, have you seen it?"
He Yan is very curious.
"Seen what?"
"Full House of Emotions" — I don't know who made it up, but the novel, TV series, and game are all very successful.
"Especially the life simulator game — many people want to try it, to see if, with their own abilities, they can follow the path of my great-grandfather."
Xu Xingchun said with secret delight.
"I've seen this one; it's quite interesting. He Yan, according to the calculations, your great-grandfather ended up alone and died old."
"With a million people trying, they all get this result."
"It's just fun."
He Yan rolled his eyes.
"Xu Grandfather had no children, and in the end he ended up wandering the streets."
"If it weren't for my great-grandfather taking him in, his later years would have been too miserable."
Yang QianSong.
"The key isn't this; the key is the conclusion drawn from big data analysis: many people's lives in the Siheyuan differ too much from reality."
"This Siheyuan could not produce someone as awesome as my great-grandfather, nor could it produce so many companies."
"Many people suspect that my great-grandfather was a stowaway, a reborn person, or a time traveler."
"If it weren't for my great-grandfather, the outcome for your two families would be terrible, and you wouldn't even exist."
"What do you think?"
What do we think?
He Yan and Xu Xingchun glanced at each other, their eyes already full of indignation.
He Yan lunged first, immediately pinning the still smug Yang QianSong beneath him.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Someone like Yang Lao is a once-in-a-thousand-years person."
"If he were really a time traveler, wouldn't he defy heaven, earth, and air?"
"Just look at the Yang family now — they're far too honest."
Xu Xingchun also sat on Yang QianSong's back.
"My great-grandfather isn't short of money; even if he couldn't have children, he could adopt one."
"How could it be extinction of the line?"
"Moreover, this was the most likely situation back then."
"How could there be so many lines dying out in a single Siheyuan?"
"The data must be wrong."
"Yang QianSong, don't talk nonsense."
Yang QianSong was pinned underneath, feeling extremely stifled.
"I don't believe you; let's play a game."
"Let's see what the ultimate fate of your great-grandfathers really is."
"Do you dare?"
Everyone was bored stiff, and besides, the water journey itself is slow; after the scenery's initial splendor, people gradually began to suffer aesthetic fatigue.
That's why these three people gossip so much, not even sparing their own great-grandfather.
